1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,560
How long does it take to get out?

2
00:00:04,060 --> 00:00:09,060
So, we're in the rat race right now.

3
00:00:09,100 --> 00:00:11,200
I included, I'm in the rat race,

4
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:15,440
and I'm just wondering how long will it take

5
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:16,860
to get out, to escape?

6
00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:23,420
Because right now my plan is to work on my podcast

7
00:00:23,420 --> 00:00:28,160
and have that be the foundation to my future business.

8
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:33,160
And then I'll be able to make money and escape

9
00:00:33,540 --> 00:00:37,040
in that regard and through those means.

10
00:00:38,580 --> 00:00:43,580
And there's this one concept that I learned about

11
00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:46,020
in Rally Transurfing.

12
00:00:46,020 --> 00:00:51,020
And initially, I heard of this,

13
00:00:54,900 --> 00:00:56,160
it's called manifestation.

14
00:00:56,160 --> 00:01:00,920
I heard of this from my sister a long time ago,

15
00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:03,760
probably one year ago, two years ago.

16
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:08,760
And I did not believe it.

17
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:12,060
My sister believed it and she said,

18
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:16,460
Sheila told me about it, I didn't believe it.

19
00:01:18,980 --> 00:01:20,960
And then it wasn't until I read Transurfing

20
00:01:20,960 --> 00:01:23,000
when I actually started to believe it

21
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,800
and then I actually did it.

22
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:30,800
And I visualized and it came true,

23
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:32,640
which was Funnel Hacking Live.

24
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:38,280
And now I'm visualizing something much, much greater,

25
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:43,280
much more detailed and much further away from my life,

26
00:01:44,460 --> 00:01:49,460
my current lifeline, which it is basically me being free,

27
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:55,640
living in Hawaii on my own.

28
00:01:55,640 --> 00:02:00,640
And having my own private beach, my own house,

29
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:07,640
the beach I can surf in those waves,

30
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,520
it's a pretty elaborate visualization.

31
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:14,520
And I've talked about pretty much the entire thing

32
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:16,720
in past episode.

33
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:21,720
And so I've been really locking in on that.

34
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:26,440
And yesterday, I remember I was biking home

35
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:29,560
and everything just felt like a dream.

36
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,280
Everything kind of felt strange.

37
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:36,920
And then today I didn't have that feeling.

38
00:02:36,920 --> 00:02:41,680
So what that tells me is not to get discouraged

39
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:46,680
because my old way of thinking, my old patterns of thinking

40
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:50,360
would automatically say, oh, I was so close

41
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:52,200
and now I just like lost progress.

42
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:55,920
Like I was actually, like yesterday I was awake

43
00:02:55,920 --> 00:02:59,120
of like a lot during that bike ride.

44
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,240
I was controlling my thoughts very well.

45
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,580
I was just everything was going very well.

46
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,760
And I, in my old school of thought,

47
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,640
I would have just thought that I lost a lot of progress

48
00:03:12,640 --> 00:03:15,840
because today I wasn't really awake that much

49
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:17,960
and today I was not.

50
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,040
I didn't feel that sense of everything as a dream.

51
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:26,880
So my old, I would have thought that it was a,

52
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,640
I would have thought that I lost progress in that regard,

53
00:03:30,640 --> 00:03:35,640
but I can already tell that I'm like in this sense,

54
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:41,200
I can already tell that I am changing my like thought patterns

55
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:45,440
because instead of thinking that I was losing progress,

56
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:50,440
I instantly like created this elaborate like story in my head

57
00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:54,960
or explanation in my head as to how I actually am

58
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:56,240
making progress.

59
00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:00,360
And the explanation is irrelevant.

60
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,120
It doesn't really matter, but I want to tell you,

61
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:04,360
just keep going.

62
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:06,940
Like that's one of the biggest lessons

63
00:04:06,940 --> 00:04:10,720
that I've learned over the past year.

64
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:12,200
Just keep going.

65
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:16,920
And it was actually confirmed because someone

66
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:20,160
at Funal Hacking Live, when I went to Funal Hacking Live

67
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:24,400
a couple of weeks ago, someone actually said,

68
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:27,720
I asked him, and this is a successful entrepreneur

69
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:32,720
that I asked, he, I asked him what tip or suggestion

70
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,960
or any words of wisdom do you have for me?

71
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:42,960
And he said, never stop. And so that,

72
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:48,280
he was talking about business, but I really believe that

73
00:04:48,280 --> 00:04:52,360
he also meant everything else, like self-improvement,

74
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,840
spirituality, focusing on controlling your thoughts,

75
00:04:55,840 --> 00:04:58,440
never stop any of that stuff.

76
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,400
Never stop getting better, never stop progressing.

77
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:06,400
And so I, today I actually came to the,

78
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,240
I had an epiphany today.

79
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:17,240
So I woke up this morning, kind of my alarm woke me up

80
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:22,000
this morning, which is abnormal because usually I wake up

81
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:25,080
a few minutes before my alarm, but this morning

82
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,480
my alarm woke me up and so I was already a little bit,

83
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:32,240
like not very woken up very well.

84
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,120
I was just a little tired, not really tired,

85
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:40,120
but it, depending on how optimal my sleep was

86
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:44,920
the night before or what time I wake up naturally,

87
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,560
or whether I naturally or not wake up,

88
00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:52,360
wake up naturally or not, depending on all those factors,

89
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:57,360
my, the all those factors affect kind of how much control

90
00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:59,200
I have over my thoughts that day,

91
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:02,700
or how like out of control my thoughts are.

92
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,720
So this morning I woke up and my thoughts were not

93
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:08,600
controlled at all.

94
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:12,560
I was, I was basically falling asleep,

95
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:14,520
not physically falling asleep,

96
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:18,040
but my consciousness was falling asleep often.

97
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:21,880
And so I just went through the whole day,

98
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:26,240
kind of sleeping by, like just,

99
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,800
my consciousness was asleep the whole time basically.

100
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:31,760
And now I was waking myself up a lot,

101
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:35,440
but I could tell that I was like not focused much.

102
00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:41,880
And then today the epiphany that I came by is that

103
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:44,240
as long as I just keep going,

104
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:48,320
like I had a cool experience during my meditation

105
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:51,600
the other day and I keep on having an expectation

106
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:53,400
that I'm gonna have another cool experience

107
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:56,640
or I'm gonna get better and better.

108
00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:59,760
But I, those are only holding me back, those expectations.

109
00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:03,520
And I just gotta keep going, keep moving forward

110
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,080
and just have patience.

111
00:07:07,280 --> 00:07:11,680
And actually there's one thing.

112
00:07:12,740 --> 00:07:16,600
I'm having a lot of patience with my slide

113
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:19,360
because I know that I've been doing it

114
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:23,320
for quite some time now, this visualization.

115
00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:25,440
Maybe like a month or two, I don't know.

116
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:31,480
And what I found, what I discovered is,

117
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:34,520
well actually no, what I realized is that

118
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:36,920
I was patient for this entire month.

119
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:41,920
Like let's just say for explanation sake, argument sake,

120
00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:44,920
I have been doing my slide for one month.

121
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:51,360
So this whole time I've been very actively running my slide

122
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:56,320
every single day and for many minutes,

123
00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,040
probably even an hour every day.

124
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:01,960
So I've been extremely patient for this whole month.

125
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:07,840
And since the world is a mirror and you send your image,

126
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:12,040
you actively create your reality using your thoughts,

127
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:16,880
but the mirror has a delay.

128
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:18,800
So you basically have to hold your thoughts up

129
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:23,800
for a little bit of time and then it'll start materializing.

130
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:29,200
And so this whole first month, I'd been patient.

131
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:33,400
And honestly, the beginning is the hardest

132
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:35,880
because you have to be patient and just keep doing it

133
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,080
even though you're not seeing any results.

134
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,240
So I've been doing it for the whole first month,

135
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:44,620
very patient and what I realized,

136
00:08:44,620 --> 00:08:49,260
I wasn't seeing any results yet I was still doing it.

137
00:08:50,780 --> 00:08:53,260
And then the moment I see results,

138
00:08:53,260 --> 00:08:58,300
my mind had a tendency to think that I was losing progress,

139
00:08:58,300 --> 00:09:02,380
but then I reminded myself that that's like the first results.

140
00:09:02,380 --> 00:09:06,420
Like that is exactly what my mind had the tendency

141
00:09:06,420 --> 00:09:11,420
to get demotivated even though that is insane.

142
00:09:11,420 --> 00:09:16,420
Like I got results, my first glance of results.

143
00:09:17,820 --> 00:09:20,340
And those results were in two forms.

144
00:09:20,340 --> 00:09:25,180
Like the other day I was, I had that meditation,

145
00:09:25,180 --> 00:09:26,860
even though it was just a brief moment,

146
00:09:26,860 --> 00:09:28,660
that's still considered results.

147
00:09:30,500 --> 00:09:32,380
Yesterday when I was biking,

148
00:09:32,380 --> 00:09:36,900
I was like extremely conscious that is results.

149
00:09:36,900 --> 00:09:41,820
And the biggest result of them all was yesterday

150
00:09:41,820 --> 00:09:45,060
after I finished recording the podcast.

151
00:09:45,060 --> 00:09:47,660
So let me give some context real quick.

152
00:09:48,740 --> 00:09:53,740
I have been podcasting for like three months now maybe.

153
00:09:58,380 --> 00:10:01,020
It's been, I'm on episode 93 right now.

154
00:10:01,020 --> 00:10:06,020
I believe it's 93 and pretty much the whole time,

155
00:10:07,540 --> 00:10:10,940
like the first month I had four people listening,

156
00:10:10,940 --> 00:10:13,620
the second month like five people listening,

157
00:10:13,620 --> 00:10:15,940
and then the third month, or no,

158
00:10:15,940 --> 00:10:18,340
the second month was like seven people were listening.

159
00:10:18,340 --> 00:10:21,060
So I had seven people listening to every single episode.

160
00:10:22,420 --> 00:10:27,420
And then going into month three, October, like right now,

161
00:10:27,420 --> 00:10:32,420
I was at seven and then I dropped down to six,

162
00:10:34,100 --> 00:10:35,740
and then I dropped down to five.

163
00:10:36,980 --> 00:10:41,980
And pretty much my daily downloads leading up to this point

164
00:10:43,860 --> 00:10:47,900
was maybe like six, five to seven,

165
00:10:47,900 --> 00:10:49,740
five to seven downloads every day,

166
00:10:49,740 --> 00:10:52,060
usually around seven downloads,

167
00:10:52,060 --> 00:10:57,060
six or seven downloads every day. But then last night,

168
00:11:01,540 --> 00:11:04,540
I checked my analytics after I was done editing

169
00:11:04,540 --> 00:11:07,180
all of the episode from yesterday.

170
00:11:08,700 --> 00:11:12,100
And I was just expecting to see like seven downloads,

171
00:11:12,100 --> 00:11:17,100
like my normal, I was kind of hoping to see that I was,

172
00:11:17,180 --> 00:11:19,220
since I dropped subscribers,

173
00:11:19,220 --> 00:11:22,460
like two people stopped listening,

174
00:11:22,460 --> 00:11:25,620
I was hoping to see that I got like a subscriber back.

175
00:11:26,940 --> 00:11:29,900
But what I saw was actually crazy.

176
00:11:29,900 --> 00:11:34,180
I saw my daily downloads, which is normally like seven,

177
00:11:34,180 --> 00:11:37,860
I had 57 daily downloads.

178
00:11:37,860 --> 00:11:41,580
When I saw that number, I instantly like my stomach dropped.

179
00:11:41,580 --> 00:11:45,320
I was like, oh my goodness, like that was insane.

180
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:50,080
I was like scared, not even, I wasn't scared,

181
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:52,280
but I was like amazed.

182
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:54,880
I was in shock.

183
00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:59,200
And so I was like really excited about that.

184
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:04,200
And then I went to bed and today I was really excited

185
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:08,200
to see how many of those 57,

186
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,360
like I was excited to see if I'd have like 57 downloads

187
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:12,880
again today.

188
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:16,200
And so I was gonna wait until after the episode

189
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,280
to check it, but I couldn't help myself.

190
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:21,880
And I checked it before this episode

191
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,400
and guess how many downloads I had?

192
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:28,300
Six, six downloads.

193
00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:34,240
So that, I would have the tendency to be,

194
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:39,240
like demotivated after that before.

195
00:12:40,680 --> 00:12:43,080
And honestly, I was a little demotivated

196
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:44,320
that I saw it six today.

197
00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:50,120
But that's the same as what I had two days ago.

198
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:54,000
Six, I've always had six, six downloads every day.

199
00:12:55,280 --> 00:13:00,280
And I had my first sign that first sign of success yesterday,

200
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:03,800
57 downloads in one day, the most I've ever had.

201
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:07,280
The most I've ever had before that was like eight, maybe.

202
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:13,960
So that is like the third sign of success that I've had.

203
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:18,440
And so once you start seeing those signs of success,

204
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:20,080
you have to keep going.

205
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,280
Like that is the motivation.

206
00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:25,480
So now I'm back like to six downloads.

207
00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:27,280
So I don't think any of those people

208
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,680
that listened yesterday, maybe it was just one person

209
00:13:30,680 --> 00:13:33,480
that listened like 60 times.

210
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:37,080
And by the way, I'm recording this episode

211
00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:40,080
when episode 86 just went live.

212
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:45,080
So this episode's being recorded on the 18th of October,

213
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:45,920
2023.

214
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:51,360
So everything, like you guys are listening a week behind.

215
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:53,960
So by the time this episode releases,

216
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:57,440
who knows, maybe I'll be back up to 50 downloads a day.

217
00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,640
Maybe I'll be up, I mean, not back up.

218
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,840
Maybe I will get 50 downloads a day again,

219
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,160
or maybe not, I don't know.

220
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:08,440
And so I like saw that

221
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:10,240
and I was like thinking about that all night.

222
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:12,920
I was so excited to like go into bed.

223
00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:16,120
I kind of, it took me a little while to get to bed.

224
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:19,840
I had to like stop myself from feeling excitement.

225
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:22,040
So I was like, I'm gonna go back to bed.

226
00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:24,920
Myself from feeling excitement, so I could go to bed.

227
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:29,160
And then I was thinking about it more

228
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:31,320
and there's one thing.

229
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:34,040
When I first started, like when I first decided

230
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:37,640
to start this podcast, it was cause I read in a book,

231
00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:39,800
Expert Secrets, Russell Brunson said,

232
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:45,480
if you post daily on your show for an entire year,

233
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:49,440
you will find your voice as well

234
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:52,080
as you will never have to worry about money again.

235
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:55,920
So I didn't really care about the finding your voice

236
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:57,480
and I just cared about never having to worry

237
00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:58,840
about money again.

238
00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,520
And it seemed easy enough to post daily,

239
00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:02,960
so I just decided to do it.

240
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:08,120
And I have not experienced any monetary gain

241
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:12,360
out of this podcast, yet I don't need to,

242
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:14,800
or I obviously I want the monetary value,

243
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:17,920
but the most valuable piece of it

244
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:19,720
was me finding my voice so far.

245
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:24,240
And yes, I will be finding my voice more and more

246
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:28,360
throughout like in the upcoming months

247
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,400
as I keep posting daily.

248
00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:35,800
But like just 93 episodes in,

249
00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:39,560
and I already have gotten like the most valuable

250
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:41,000
impact on my growth.

251
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,920
Just finding my voice and actually being able

252
00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:48,280
to speak more fluidly and effectively.

253
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:54,400
So the podcast, I'm 93 episodes in,

254
00:15:55,000 --> 00:16:00,000
and I remember my first milestone was when I got like episode 10.

255
00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:02,760
When I recorded episode 10, that was awesome

256
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:05,600
because that was my first double digits.

257
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:09,640
And then the second milestone was episode 21,

258
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:12,480
which once I hit episode 21, that was an awesome moment

259
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:16,320
because I had heard a statistic that said,

260
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:20,240
once you reach episode 21, you are now in the top 1%

261
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,600
of all podcasts in the world.

262
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:27,200
Because 99% of podcasters stop posting

263
00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:29,720
before they reach 21 episodes.

264
00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:36,960
So I'm considered top 1% now, once I reached episode 21.

265
00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:41,960
And then the next kind of milestone that I got

266
00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:45,680
was episode 50, which it wasn't really that big

267
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:48,480
of a milestone because I didn't really care too much to it.

268
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:51,560
I was kind of in the grind at that time.

269
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:55,240
And then I kind of forgot about like milestones.

270
00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:59,000
And then at Funnel Hacking Live, the same person

271
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:00,640
that said, never stop.

272
00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:04,640
He also told me about his podcast.

273
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:08,480
He had recorded 100 episodes on his podcast.

274
00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:11,200
And then he stopped for like a long time

275
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:15,600
and he hasn't recorded since, but he got to 100 episodes.

276
00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:20,600
And as a result, his podcast was like fairly popular

277
00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:23,380
once he got to 100 episodes.

278
00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:30,040
And so once I heard that and he said that,

279
00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:32,160
he told me about a quote, Seth Rogen

280
00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:34,560
that I've actually heard before.

281
00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:38,240
Seth Rogen goes on any podcast,

282
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:42,600
he'll be the guest on any podcast under one condition.

283
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:46,440
That show has reached 100 episodes at least.

284
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:49,600
And that shows that they're committed in the long term

285
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:51,880
and they're in it for like the long game

286
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:53,780
and they're actually serious.

287
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:58,960
And so all of those dots connected

288
00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,840
and I found my next milestone, episode 100

289
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:06,840
because I kind of correlated episode 100 with success.

290
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:10,280
Like once I reach episode 100, I'll start to see some success.

291
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:15,280
And I'd reached my, I have like achieved my first,

292
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:20,160
or seen my first spark of hope yesterday

293
00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:22,880
when I checked those analytics, 57,

294
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:25,760
which to be honest, 57 downloads in one day

295
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:28,440
is not that much in the grand scheme of things,

296
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:33,440
but it said that I had like a 400% increase

297
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:35,280
from the day before.

298
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:39,040
So that's a lot, like that 400% in growth is a lot.

299
00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:41,680
57 in the grand scheme of things is not that much,

300
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:45,160
but in comparison to seven is a lot.

301
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:52,800
And so that was my first kind of spark of like success

302
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:55,820
or shine or whatever.

303
00:18:55,820 --> 00:19:00,820
So now my like ever since I got home from Funalaki Live,

304
00:19:01,700 --> 00:19:06,540
my new goal or my next milestone was 100 episodes.

305
00:19:06,540 --> 00:19:10,180
And I am actually one week away

306
00:19:10,180 --> 00:19:14,460
because once I'm done recording this episode

307
00:19:14,460 --> 00:19:19,460
in one week from today, so next Wednesday,

308
00:19:20,380 --> 00:19:24,340
I'll be on episode, or I'll have recorded 100 episodes,

309
00:19:24,340 --> 00:19:26,300
which means that I'll have achieved the milestone

310
00:19:26,300 --> 00:19:30,620
in real time, but it won't be in two weeks

311
00:19:30,620 --> 00:19:33,620
when I actually achieve it

312
00:19:33,620 --> 00:19:37,580
because I record seven episodes ahead of schedule.

313
00:19:38,860 --> 00:19:40,980
So it doesn't post until the next week.

314
00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:45,820
So those are my milestones right now.

315
00:19:45,820 --> 00:19:47,820
Once I get to episode 100,

316
00:19:47,820 --> 00:19:50,060
then I'll see what is going on.

317
00:19:50,060 --> 00:19:51,860
Like that's kind of my milestone to push forward.

318
00:19:51,860 --> 00:19:56,860
And obviously I'm gonna keep recording for like every day.

319
00:19:57,180 --> 00:19:58,900
I'm gonna go past episode 100,

320
00:19:58,900 --> 00:20:01,400
but that's kind of like my next milestone.

321
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:04,900
I'm not gonna worry about analytics too much.

322
00:20:04,900 --> 00:20:06,300
I'm still gonna check my analytics,

323
00:20:06,300 --> 00:20:09,780
but I'm not gonna worry about the fact

324
00:20:09,780 --> 00:20:12,940
that I'm not getting 50 downloads again

325
00:20:12,940 --> 00:20:16,260
because I already went through this,

326
00:20:16,260 --> 00:20:19,500
but just keep pushing forward.

327
00:20:19,500 --> 00:20:24,500
That's the biggest piece of advice that I can give.

328
00:20:25,660 --> 00:20:30,660
And I wanna give an overview of my life.

329
00:20:31,580 --> 00:20:35,020
So when I was a kid, I, in middle school,

330
00:20:36,100 --> 00:20:38,740
I always wanted hot lunch.

331
00:20:38,740 --> 00:20:42,020
That was the lunch that my school served.

332
00:20:42,020 --> 00:20:45,220
So I wanted hot lunch, but my mom always said

333
00:20:45,220 --> 00:20:49,860
that I had to pay for it with my own money if I wanted it.

334
00:20:49,860 --> 00:20:51,660
And I never wanted to do that,

335
00:20:51,660 --> 00:20:55,900
but my mom did say that I could just pack my lunch

336
00:20:55,900 --> 00:20:58,620
and she would like go to the store

337
00:20:58,620 --> 00:21:00,960
and buy food for me to pack.

338
00:21:02,820 --> 00:21:07,820
So I kind of had the entrepreneurial mindset.

339
00:21:09,540 --> 00:21:11,940
I didn't know about entrepreneurship back in the day,

340
00:21:11,940 --> 00:21:15,820
but I had the business mindset where I was like,

341
00:21:15,820 --> 00:21:18,020
oh, this is an issue that I have.

342
00:21:18,020 --> 00:21:21,420
My mom can buy stuff for me at school

343
00:21:21,420 --> 00:21:23,220
or to bring to school.

344
00:21:23,220 --> 00:21:26,700
So what I did was I asked my friends

345
00:21:26,700 --> 00:21:29,940
and I noticed that a lot of my friends like eating chips,

346
00:21:29,940 --> 00:21:34,020
like Lay's, Fritos, Doritos, all that stuff.

347
00:21:34,020 --> 00:21:39,020
So I started getting my mom to buy a whole box

348
00:21:39,020 --> 00:21:44,020
like a big box of party sized chips

349
00:21:47,580 --> 00:21:50,980
or not party sized, but snack sized chip bags.

350
00:21:50,980 --> 00:21:55,580
It was just a whole box of just chips at Costco.

351
00:21:55,580 --> 00:21:56,940
And so my mom would buy that

352
00:21:56,940 --> 00:21:59,900
and I would just bring like three bags of chips to school

353
00:22:00,780 --> 00:22:01,620
every day.

354
00:22:03,100 --> 00:22:08,100
And I would trade like one chip for a hot lunch

355
00:22:08,100 --> 00:22:11,940
and then depending on if that person was a regular customer,

356
00:22:11,940 --> 00:22:14,580
I would make a deal where they would do,

357
00:22:14,580 --> 00:22:16,740
they would give it to me every single day

358
00:22:16,740 --> 00:22:18,380
and I would do two chips every day.

359
00:22:18,380 --> 00:22:20,360
So I'd give them two chips every day

360
00:22:20,360 --> 00:22:22,340
for hot lunch guaranteed.

361
00:22:22,340 --> 00:22:25,420
But for normal people that were not regulars,

362
00:22:25,420 --> 00:22:28,060
I would say like one chip for a hot lunch.

363
00:22:28,060 --> 00:22:30,100
And people took it like a lot of the days

364
00:22:30,100 --> 00:22:32,700
I wouldn't just get one hot lunch.

365
00:22:32,700 --> 00:22:36,660
I would go to my table with like three hot lunches

366
00:22:36,660 --> 00:22:38,180
and I would just eat them all.

367
00:22:38,180 --> 00:22:39,860
Like, and that was like, that was life.

368
00:22:39,860 --> 00:22:41,380
I'm not even gonna lie.

369
00:22:41,380 --> 00:22:46,260
And then I like expanded to like apple sauce pouches.

370
00:22:46,260 --> 00:22:50,380
There was these like plastic apple sauce pouches

371
00:22:50,380 --> 00:22:54,100
and I traded those and like life was great.

372
00:22:54,100 --> 00:22:57,140
And then I kind of, and then I didn't do that anymore

373
00:22:57,140 --> 00:23:00,940
because I went to high school and then COVID happened,

374
00:23:00,940 --> 00:23:02,180
the lockdown happened.

375
00:23:02,180 --> 00:23:07,180
And then I just started packing my own lunch

376
00:23:07,620 --> 00:23:11,260
at like four in high school.

377
00:23:11,260 --> 00:23:12,460
So I stopped doing that.

378
00:23:14,140 --> 00:23:17,700
But honestly, I had a reason why I was gonna tell you

379
00:23:17,700 --> 00:23:18,820
all this story.

380
00:23:20,140 --> 00:23:22,180
Oh yeah, okay.

381
00:23:22,180 --> 00:23:23,880
That's like context.

382
00:23:25,620 --> 00:23:30,380
And then, so during high school,

383
00:23:30,380 --> 00:23:32,060
I've talked about this story as well.

384
00:23:32,060 --> 00:23:34,180
I have always played soccer all my life.

385
00:23:34,180 --> 00:23:39,180
And then I wanted to play on the high school team.

386
00:23:39,740 --> 00:23:44,740
So I tried out first one year and I got cut.

387
00:23:45,100 --> 00:23:45,940
I got cut.

388
00:23:45,940 --> 00:23:47,220
So I didn't make it.

389
00:23:47,220 --> 00:23:50,100
And then I was like, oh, I actually have to train for this

390
00:23:50,100 --> 00:23:51,900
because people are way better than me

391
00:23:51,900 --> 00:23:53,180
and everyone else practices.

392
00:23:53,180 --> 00:23:55,900
That was, that's what I thought everyone else practiced.

393
00:23:57,340 --> 00:23:59,860
And then, so I started training.

394
00:23:59,860 --> 00:24:01,420
I didn't start training soccer.

395
00:24:01,420 --> 00:24:05,820
I started like just training, running and like cardio.

396
00:24:05,820 --> 00:24:08,840
And then sophomore year, I tried out again, got cut.

397
00:24:10,380 --> 00:24:15,020
So then I was like, oh, I'm not strong enough.

398
00:24:15,020 --> 00:24:16,420
So I have to start lifting.

399
00:24:16,420 --> 00:24:19,620
So I was lifting and then I was training cardio.

400
00:24:19,620 --> 00:24:24,620
And then I also realized that I needed to improve

401
00:24:25,120 --> 00:24:27,980
my soccer skills because I sucked at soccer.

402
00:24:27,980 --> 00:24:32,460
But I was like, good shape, but I didn't have like the skills.

403
00:24:33,340 --> 00:24:36,420
And so I started practicing the skills.

404
00:24:36,420 --> 00:24:39,980
And then going into junior year,

405
00:24:39,980 --> 00:24:42,760
I got injured right before trouts

406
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:47,060
because I was doing so much that summer.

407
00:24:47,060 --> 00:24:49,500
And even like the months leading up to that summer,

408
00:24:49,500 --> 00:24:53,100
literally like more than eight months

409
00:24:53,100 --> 00:24:57,060
leading up to those tryouts.

410
00:24:57,060 --> 00:25:02,060
I was like going to the gym every morning,

411
00:25:03,620 --> 00:25:05,140
first thing in the morning.

412
00:25:05,140 --> 00:25:07,960
And then I'd like come home, eat,

413
00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:12,260
go to the park with soccer and train that.

414
00:25:12,260 --> 00:25:14,500
And then I'd like literally be at the park

415
00:25:14,500 --> 00:25:19,360
for hours every day, training cardio and my soccer skills.

416
00:25:19,360 --> 00:25:23,060
And then I would come home, take an ice bath every day.

417
00:25:24,580 --> 00:25:26,900
I'd always take like cold showers as well.

418
00:25:26,900 --> 00:25:28,020
Like I was serious.

419
00:25:28,020 --> 00:25:30,900
I was locked into training and then I got injured.

420
00:25:32,220 --> 00:25:34,100
It was not even that bad of an injury,

421
00:25:34,100 --> 00:25:36,020
but at the time I thought it was really bad.

422
00:25:36,020 --> 00:25:39,620
Like I couldn't walk, I couldn't bend my leg.

423
00:25:39,620 --> 00:25:43,100
So it was bad, but it was like,

424
00:25:43,100 --> 00:25:47,380
I could have healed in like literally a week or two weeks.

425
00:25:47,380 --> 00:25:50,780
And I did heal in two weeks, but I decided not to try it.

426
00:25:50,780 --> 00:25:53,620
Because I was in like a very low emotion

427
00:25:53,620 --> 00:25:56,740
or a very emotional state where like,

428
00:25:56,740 --> 00:25:59,220
I knew that I thought that everything was over.

429
00:25:59,220 --> 00:26:02,220
So I just didn't even bother to try out

430
00:26:02,220 --> 00:26:03,720
because I couldn't even walk.

431
00:26:05,660 --> 00:26:08,020
And honestly, that was probably the best decision

432
00:26:08,020 --> 00:26:13,020
I've ever made, even though I regretted it for like a year.

433
00:26:13,340 --> 00:26:14,300
Not a year.

434
00:26:14,300 --> 00:26:15,660
I regretted it for a few months

435
00:26:15,660 --> 00:26:18,060
because I knew that I could have made the team.

436
00:26:19,340 --> 00:26:21,620
Even though I was injured,

437
00:26:21,620 --> 00:26:22,980
I could have just talked to the coach

438
00:26:22,980 --> 00:26:25,180
and I would have made the team.

439
00:26:25,180 --> 00:26:30,020
But the reason why it was probably the best decision

440
00:26:30,020 --> 00:26:33,020
I've ever made was because during junior year

441
00:26:33,020 --> 00:26:35,660
is when I started getting into like serious self-improvement.

442
00:26:35,660 --> 00:26:38,140
That's when I started reading books.

443
00:26:38,140 --> 00:26:40,340
That's when I considered my start of self-improvement

444
00:26:40,340 --> 00:26:41,740
at the beginning of junior year.

445
00:26:41,740 --> 00:26:44,380
So at this time I was lifting every day

446
00:26:44,380 --> 00:26:48,900
and I kind of started slowly fade out soccer.

447
00:26:48,900 --> 00:26:51,140
Like I was still practicing soccer

448
00:26:51,140 --> 00:26:56,140
up until like that winter break.

449
00:26:56,580 --> 00:26:59,700
Like I remember winter break in junior year,

450
00:26:59,700 --> 00:27:03,660
I like literally was locked in.

451
00:27:03,660 --> 00:27:06,700
I was at home from school for like three weeks.

452
00:27:06,700 --> 00:27:11,700
So literally what I did was wake up, go to the gym

453
00:27:12,140 --> 00:27:16,620
and then after the gym, I would practice soccer in the gym.

454
00:27:16,620 --> 00:27:20,620
And I would like practice my juggling, all that stuff.

455
00:27:20,620 --> 00:27:23,220
And then I come home and read for the rest of the day.

456
00:27:23,220 --> 00:27:24,860
That was what I did.

457
00:27:24,860 --> 00:27:28,620
Even on Christmas day, I remember going to the gym

458
00:27:28,620 --> 00:27:31,220
at like six in the morning on Christmas day.

459
00:27:32,140 --> 00:27:35,020
And that was like awesome times.

460
00:27:36,780 --> 00:27:41,780
So then I was reading starting junior year

461
00:27:42,100 --> 00:27:45,620
and then right now I've been reading

462
00:27:45,620 --> 00:27:48,580
for a little over a year.

463
00:27:48,580 --> 00:27:51,020
I'm in senior year.

464
00:27:51,020 --> 00:27:55,340
And then the summer going into junior year

465
00:27:55,340 --> 00:27:58,860
is when I decided that I was like this whole time

466
00:27:58,860 --> 00:28:01,380
I was like, while I was reading,

467
00:28:01,380 --> 00:28:03,420
I was really focused on health

468
00:28:03,420 --> 00:28:06,340
and a lot of that stuff, improving my health.

469
00:28:07,540 --> 00:28:09,660
And then summer going into junior year,

470
00:28:09,660 --> 00:28:12,180
I realized that I got to the point where like,

471
00:28:13,140 --> 00:28:15,220
in order to improve my health more,

472
00:28:15,220 --> 00:28:18,420
because I was looking into like estrogenics

473
00:28:18,420 --> 00:28:23,420
and like cutting out all of the bad chemicals in my life,

474
00:28:23,700 --> 00:28:28,700
I realized that in order to improve my health more,

475
00:28:30,020 --> 00:28:33,220
I actually needed money and I didn't have any money.

476
00:28:33,220 --> 00:28:34,660
And there was only so much stuff

477
00:28:34,660 --> 00:28:38,220
that my parents were willing to like pay for,

478
00:28:38,220 --> 00:28:43,220
which is understandable because I was asking for a lot of stuff.

479
00:28:43,220 --> 00:28:45,660
So I realized that I needed money to improve my health.

480
00:28:45,660 --> 00:28:47,900
So then I kind of thought that I needed

481
00:28:47,900 --> 00:28:49,460
to start making money.

482
00:28:49,460 --> 00:28:52,860
So I was like, okay, I've always really had the idea

483
00:28:52,860 --> 00:28:54,460
that I was going to get into entrepreneurship,

484
00:28:54,460 --> 00:28:56,260
but I was never really serious about it.

485
00:28:56,260 --> 00:28:59,460
I was never really like dedicated about it.

486
00:28:59,460 --> 00:29:01,060
I never really learned about it.

487
00:29:01,060 --> 00:29:04,460
And I was like going in that summer,

488
00:29:04,460 --> 00:29:07,420
I decided to lock in on business.

489
00:29:07,420 --> 00:29:09,860
So I started reading books about it.

490
00:29:09,860 --> 00:29:14,860
And then I remember one of the ways that I locked in

491
00:29:17,140 --> 00:29:22,140
on business was literally buying like 10 books on business

492
00:29:23,100 --> 00:29:26,580
and having them shipped to my house all on like the same day.

493
00:29:27,620 --> 00:29:30,180
And I probably only read like two of those books,

494
00:29:30,180 --> 00:29:32,740
maybe one or two of those books.

495
00:29:32,740 --> 00:29:36,540
Like they're just sitting in my closet, not doing anything.

496
00:29:36,540 --> 00:29:41,540
And that was like how I decided to lock in,

497
00:29:41,700 --> 00:29:43,140
even though I was already locked in there.

498
00:29:43,140 --> 00:29:45,340
I was just being a dumb, I was just being dumb.

499
00:29:46,660 --> 00:29:49,940
So I started reading all the business books.

500
00:29:49,940 --> 00:29:54,940
And then I read expert secrets, started doing the podcast.

501
00:29:55,340 --> 00:29:57,980
And I realized that I didn't really,

502
00:29:58,900 --> 00:30:01,260
I was working on like funnels and stuff,

503
00:30:01,260 --> 00:30:03,940
trying to learn how to build websites.

504
00:30:03,940 --> 00:30:07,580
And I didn't really see that that was my path.

505
00:30:09,020 --> 00:30:11,060
But now I'm starting to see how it was all connected

506
00:30:11,060 --> 00:30:12,140
because it's good.

507
00:30:12,140 --> 00:30:14,980
Like I was excited learning about funnels

508
00:30:14,980 --> 00:30:16,860
until a certain point.

509
00:30:16,860 --> 00:30:20,300
Once I developed an understanding of how like the software

510
00:30:20,300 --> 00:30:22,500
worked and all that stuff,

511
00:30:22,500 --> 00:30:25,540
then I kind of got bored of building funnels.

512
00:30:25,540 --> 00:30:30,540
And then I started locking in on the podcast.

513
00:30:31,300 --> 00:30:33,420
But now I'm starting to see how it all comes together

514
00:30:33,420 --> 00:30:38,020
because I'm seeing people using click funnels

515
00:30:38,020 --> 00:30:39,380
all over the place.

516
00:30:39,380 --> 00:30:42,220
And I'm seeing like all of these business concepts

517
00:30:42,220 --> 00:30:44,580
in like my day to day experience,

518
00:30:44,580 --> 00:30:45,740
looking at other YouTubers.

519
00:30:45,740 --> 00:30:47,580
And I'm seeing how other YouTubers

520
00:30:47,580 --> 00:30:50,300
are like actually doing business

521
00:30:51,580 --> 00:30:55,220
on like their platforms, for example, Hamza,

522
00:30:55,220 --> 00:30:57,460
in his bio on YouTube,

523
00:30:58,420 --> 00:31:02,260
is there's a link that leads to a click funnels page.

524
00:31:02,260 --> 00:31:06,940
And it's like just a lead magnet of a dating thing,

525
00:31:06,940 --> 00:31:09,340
like a dating, how to get better at dating

526
00:31:09,340 --> 00:31:10,540
or something like that.

527
00:31:10,540 --> 00:31:12,940
And I could tell that it's on click funnels.

528
00:31:14,340 --> 00:31:16,100
I could just tell that it was on click funnels,

529
00:31:16,100 --> 00:31:17,820
but the way I knew it was on click funnels

530
00:31:17,820 --> 00:31:22,820
was because on the icon of the website

531
00:31:22,900 --> 00:31:25,300
was still the click funnels icon.

532
00:31:27,060 --> 00:31:30,340
So that is,

533
00:31:30,340 --> 00:31:33,340
other people are doing that.

534
00:31:34,420 --> 00:31:36,340
And that's what I'm realizing that.

535
00:31:36,340 --> 00:31:38,220
That's why it's all connected

536
00:31:38,220 --> 00:31:40,740
because I was working on business,

537
00:31:40,740 --> 00:31:43,780
just studying business like for a few months in summer.

538
00:31:44,940 --> 00:31:48,540
And then I started recording my podcast

539
00:31:48,540 --> 00:31:50,540
and then I kind of shifted.

540
00:31:50,540 --> 00:31:54,100
I'd stopped learning about business like altogether.

541
00:31:54,100 --> 00:31:56,380
I haven't read a business book in a few months.

542
00:31:56,380 --> 00:32:00,300
I shifted all my attention to worldview.

543
00:32:02,100 --> 00:32:05,060
And so that's all the books that I've been reading so far.

544
00:32:05,060 --> 00:32:06,340
Reality Transurfing.

545
00:32:06,340 --> 00:32:07,860
And then I actually was,

546
00:32:07,860 --> 00:32:09,780
I did read two more business books,

547
00:32:09,780 --> 00:32:13,500
10X is easier than 2X as well as Create Don't Capture,

548
00:32:13,500 --> 00:32:16,420
but those were pretty quick reads and I didn't,

549
00:32:17,540 --> 00:32:20,700
that was just because I just got out of Funnel Acu Live.

550
00:32:20,700 --> 00:32:24,460
It's the whole thing, but pretty much,

551
00:32:24,460 --> 00:32:27,900
I completely shifted my focus from learning about business

552
00:32:27,900 --> 00:32:31,260
to just self-improvement again.

553
00:32:31,260 --> 00:32:33,980
Like I'm only working on self-improvement now,

554
00:32:33,980 --> 00:32:35,860
working on my spirituality,

555
00:32:35,860 --> 00:32:38,700
and I'm working on concentration, my core three.

556
00:32:38,700 --> 00:32:41,740
Like I've talked about my core three before.

557
00:32:41,740 --> 00:32:44,740
It's the three things that I'm focusing on right now.

558
00:32:44,740 --> 00:32:47,140
The only three things that are really important

559
00:32:47,140 --> 00:32:50,580
in my life right now is my spirituality,

560
00:32:50,580 --> 00:32:52,220
which I'm doing with meditation

561
00:32:52,220 --> 00:32:54,740
as well as learning about it in books.

562
00:32:54,740 --> 00:32:58,180
My worldview, which I'm doing in books,

563
00:32:58,180 --> 00:33:00,900
and then my documentation,

564
00:33:00,900 --> 00:33:03,500
which I'm documenting through creating content,

565
00:33:03,500 --> 00:33:07,380
like the podcast as well as TikTok and Shorts.

566
00:33:07,380 --> 00:33:12,060
And so talking about Shorts or TikToks,

567
00:33:12,060 --> 00:33:17,060
I've been posting three times a day on TikToks and Shorts

568
00:33:17,220 --> 00:33:20,060
for the past few weeks.

569
00:33:20,060 --> 00:33:25,060
And a few people have commented on my posts.

570
00:33:26,100 --> 00:33:31,100
And this one person in particular that I read today,

571
00:33:31,100 --> 00:33:33,780
which is another thing that I shouldn't be doing,

572
00:33:33,780 --> 00:33:38,780
checking my TikTok stats or analytics before recording.

573
00:33:40,860 --> 00:33:44,300
But I needed inspiration because I sat down again today,

574
00:33:44,300 --> 00:33:46,140
like not knowing what to talk about.

575
00:33:46,140 --> 00:33:48,820
So I just decided to look at my TikTok comments

576
00:33:48,820 --> 00:33:53,820
and see if you guys are saying things that I can speak on.

577
00:33:54,820 --> 00:33:59,820
And this one lady commented on my post and said,

578
00:34:02,820 --> 00:34:06,780
it was a post about how when you control your thoughts,

579
00:34:06,780 --> 00:34:08,300
you control your reality,

580
00:34:08,300 --> 00:34:10,940
and you can actually create the life that you want.

581
00:34:11,980 --> 00:34:15,220
And this person commented and said,

582
00:34:15,220 --> 00:34:18,900
well, how come you're still in this?

583
00:34:18,900 --> 00:34:22,100
Like the person said a bad word,

584
00:34:22,100 --> 00:34:26,580
but how come you're still in this place,

585
00:34:26,580 --> 00:34:28,300
this terrible place?

586
00:34:28,300 --> 00:34:31,620
The first, if I could control my reality,

587
00:34:31,620 --> 00:34:35,300
then the first thing I would do is leave this place

588
00:34:35,300 --> 00:34:40,300
and go somewhere that is still divine in nature.

589
00:34:40,300 --> 00:34:42,820
And that's a very valid comment.

590
00:34:42,820 --> 00:34:44,420
Why am I still here?

591
00:34:44,420 --> 00:34:47,620
Why am I still in this chair?

592
00:34:47,620 --> 00:34:50,620
Or why am I still like, ask a little,

593
00:34:50,620 --> 00:34:55,620
why am I still in this like matrix of a society?

594
00:34:56,420 --> 00:34:58,300
And I've been like going back and forth

595
00:34:58,300 --> 00:35:00,220
with this question many times.

596
00:35:01,220 --> 00:35:04,300
On one side, I'm thinking like I could just leave.

597
00:35:04,300 --> 00:35:07,580
I could just get up and leave and go on my own adventure.

598
00:35:07,580 --> 00:35:10,620
I could, like we live in a society

599
00:35:10,620 --> 00:35:13,460
where food is taken care of.

600
00:35:13,460 --> 00:35:15,260
Yeah, I saw it to pay for it,

601
00:35:15,260 --> 00:35:17,220
but I could figure things out,

602
00:35:17,220 --> 00:35:19,260
like the world would take care of me.

603
00:35:20,260 --> 00:35:24,260
But then on the other side, I'm trying to build this life.

604
00:35:24,620 --> 00:35:27,540
So I'm trying to build like the foundation.

605
00:35:27,540 --> 00:35:28,900
I'm trying to focus on business

606
00:35:28,900 --> 00:35:31,660
so I can have a foundation to my entire life.

607
00:35:31,660 --> 00:35:34,060
I want my business to fuel my entire life

608
00:35:34,060 --> 00:35:35,660
so I don't have to worry about it.

609
00:35:35,660 --> 00:35:37,740
I want to fuel my entire life so I don't have to worry

610
00:35:37,740 --> 00:35:39,940
about money at all for the rest of my life.

611
00:35:41,460 --> 00:35:45,580
But then on that side, I'm also like questioning,

612
00:35:45,580 --> 00:35:48,220
am I just saying that?

613
00:35:48,220 --> 00:35:50,620
Because I'm too scared to actually make the leap.

614
00:35:51,900 --> 00:35:56,420
So it's kind of like a back and forth in that context.

615
00:35:56,420 --> 00:36:01,420
But then, so I could simply just radically shift

616
00:36:01,420 --> 00:36:02,940
my scenery right now.

617
00:36:02,940 --> 00:36:07,540
I could, like anyone could.

618
00:36:07,540 --> 00:36:09,140
You have the right to choose.

619
00:36:10,580 --> 00:36:13,220
But there's one point that the person is missing.

620
00:36:13,220 --> 00:36:16,540
So let's go with the second situation,

621
00:36:16,540 --> 00:36:19,260
second scenario where I'm trying to develop,

622
00:36:19,260 --> 00:36:21,020
I'm trying to build my life

623
00:36:21,020 --> 00:36:24,620
and create my business to fuel my entire life.

624
00:36:24,620 --> 00:36:27,060
Let's just go with that scenario for argument's sake.

625
00:36:27,060 --> 00:36:30,860
The one point that the person is missing

626
00:36:30,860 --> 00:36:35,740
is that materialization is inert like tar.

627
00:36:35,740 --> 00:36:39,100
The world is a mirror, but it has a delay.

628
00:36:39,100 --> 00:36:42,900
And what that means is that when you control your thoughts,

629
00:36:42,900 --> 00:36:46,540
you control reality, but it won't happen instantly.

630
00:36:46,540 --> 00:36:48,580
You have to, like I said earlier,

631
00:36:48,580 --> 00:36:51,540
you have to hold that image in your head

632
00:36:51,540 --> 00:36:54,420
for quite some time for it to actually manifest

633
00:36:54,420 --> 00:36:57,420
into reality, for it to actually become physical

634
00:36:57,420 --> 00:36:59,940
and actually become your world.

635
00:36:59,940 --> 00:37:04,780
And so that is the very key factor in this.

636
00:37:04,780 --> 00:37:07,500
It takes time and it takes patience.

637
00:37:07,500 --> 00:37:09,100
You have to just keep building.

638
00:37:09,100 --> 00:37:11,660
And the thing is, it's a double-sided blade.

639
00:37:11,660 --> 00:37:15,060
When you start to control your thoughts,

640
00:37:15,060 --> 00:37:17,540
you're gonna be bad at it in the beginning,

641
00:37:17,540 --> 00:37:19,900
but then you'll get better and better and better.

642
00:37:19,900 --> 00:37:21,380
And eventually you'll get like,

643
00:37:21,380 --> 00:37:22,660
it's like exponential growth.

644
00:37:22,660 --> 00:37:24,260
Over time, you'll just get better and better

645
00:37:24,260 --> 00:37:25,660
at controlling your thoughts.

646
00:37:25,660 --> 00:37:27,420
So that's one side of the blade.

647
00:37:27,420 --> 00:37:30,060
So then over time, you'll get more and more powerful

648
00:37:30,060 --> 00:37:31,620
at controlling your reality.

649
00:37:31,620 --> 00:37:33,060
But then the other side is,

650
00:37:33,060 --> 00:37:35,020
as you're starting to control reality,

651
00:37:35,020 --> 00:37:37,380
you're actually like sending those thoughts out.

652
00:37:37,380 --> 00:37:39,860
So you're sending thoughts out.

653
00:37:39,860 --> 00:37:41,500
Yeah, they're probably weak in the beginning

654
00:37:41,500 --> 00:37:44,020
because you don't have very powerful energy

655
00:37:44,020 --> 00:37:47,500
as well as your thoughts are not very controlled.

656
00:37:47,500 --> 00:37:50,100
And so they're not concentrated as much.

657
00:37:50,100 --> 00:37:54,500
So then over time, you'll get more and more like sway

658
00:37:54,500 --> 00:37:57,900
on or more and more control over reality.

659
00:37:57,900 --> 00:38:01,020
And so that is like the big thing here.

660
00:38:01,020 --> 00:38:03,500
I'm trying to set myself up for my entire life.

661
00:38:03,500 --> 00:38:06,580
I'm trying to build my entire foundation.

662
00:38:06,580 --> 00:38:08,860
Like I'm trying to build the foundation to my entire life.

663
00:38:08,860 --> 00:38:11,460
Like I said, I believe that worldview

664
00:38:11,460 --> 00:38:13,980
and now I'm starting to think spirituality.

665
00:38:13,980 --> 00:38:16,940
And I don't know how spirituality or worldview is very,

666
00:38:16,940 --> 00:38:18,900
I'm not sure how it's connected,

667
00:38:18,900 --> 00:38:22,380
but I have a sense that it is connected.

668
00:38:22,380 --> 00:38:23,900
I'm just learning about them.

669
00:38:23,900 --> 00:38:26,300
I don't really know much about spirituality yet.

670
00:38:28,020 --> 00:38:29,460
And so I'm starting to believe that,

671
00:38:29,460 --> 00:38:32,460
or I know that worldview is like the foundation to your life.

672
00:38:34,020 --> 00:38:35,780
So that's why I'm building,

673
00:38:35,780 --> 00:38:39,460
I'm focusing all in on my worldview right now

674
00:38:39,460 --> 00:38:40,460
in spirituality.

675
00:38:42,020 --> 00:38:45,460
And, but like to be honest, that is just one thing.

676
00:38:45,460 --> 00:38:48,420
That's just building my like character,

677
00:38:48,420 --> 00:38:51,260
just building up my own person.

678
00:38:51,260 --> 00:38:55,460
But I still have to like make an impact on the world.

679
00:38:55,460 --> 00:38:59,420
And I still have to actually have a business

680
00:38:59,420 --> 00:39:01,740
or actually have like an income source.

681
00:39:01,740 --> 00:39:06,740
And so that's why the third core piece to my core three

682
00:39:09,100 --> 00:39:13,180
is documentation because that is like me starting

683
00:39:13,180 --> 00:39:14,980
to build my business.

684
00:39:14,980 --> 00:39:18,780
Like the documentation, the podcast, the TikToks

685
00:39:18,780 --> 00:39:21,060
are the foundation to my business.

686
00:39:21,060 --> 00:39:23,180
Whereas my worldview and spirituality

687
00:39:23,180 --> 00:39:24,660
is the foundation to my life.

688
00:39:24,660 --> 00:39:28,140
And then as a result of my business

689
00:39:28,140 --> 00:39:29,620
is the foundation to my life.

690
00:39:29,620 --> 00:39:32,700
So all these three core threes are the foundation

691
00:39:32,700 --> 00:39:36,180
to my life, but the business side

692
00:39:36,180 --> 00:39:38,620
is kind of like the material side.

693
00:39:38,620 --> 00:39:41,860
And then the worldview and spirituality are the like,

694
00:39:44,820 --> 00:39:47,860
non-material side of things.

695
00:39:47,860 --> 00:39:52,700
So I kind of have this, I'm starting to develop more

696
00:39:52,700 --> 00:39:54,220
and more in all three.

697
00:39:55,500 --> 00:40:00,500
And I'm just trying to show like one of the big goals

698
00:40:01,380 --> 00:40:05,380
of this podcast, even from the beginning

699
00:40:05,380 --> 00:40:10,380
was to show you guys that it's possible to escape,

700
00:40:10,420 --> 00:40:11,740
to actually live free.

701
00:40:11,740 --> 00:40:14,740
It's possible to become free.

702
00:40:14,740 --> 00:40:18,060
Like the whole point of this podcast is me documenting

703
00:40:18,060 --> 00:40:21,740
my journey from being in this society

704
00:40:21,740 --> 00:40:23,740
and documenting all of my growth

705
00:40:23,740 --> 00:40:26,300
and everything that I'm doing along the way.

706
00:40:26,300 --> 00:40:29,980
Which by the way, the only thing on the material side

707
00:40:29,980 --> 00:40:32,060
of things, the only thing on the business side of things

708
00:40:32,060 --> 00:40:36,500
that I've done so far up to this point is podcasting.

709
00:40:36,500 --> 00:40:40,700
And then just recently I started doing TikToks and shorts,

710
00:40:40,700 --> 00:40:41,860
three of them every day.

711
00:40:41,860 --> 00:40:46,860
So literally all I've been doing is podcasting

712
00:40:46,940 --> 00:40:49,060
on the business side of things.

713
00:40:49,060 --> 00:40:53,420
And that's like the whole purpose of this,

714
00:40:53,420 --> 00:40:56,500
like that's the biggest purpose of this podcast

715
00:40:56,500 --> 00:41:00,820
to prove that anyone can make it out of the rat race.

716
00:41:00,820 --> 00:41:04,380
Anyone, doesn't matter who you are.

717
00:41:04,380 --> 00:41:06,540
Anyone can actually become free.

718
00:41:08,020 --> 00:41:09,620
You just have to actually do it.

719
00:41:09,620 --> 00:41:11,660
You actually have to do it.

720
00:41:11,660 --> 00:41:14,940
And so this is why I think it's so powerful

721
00:41:14,940 --> 00:41:19,700
that I'm like showing all my progress

722
00:41:19,700 --> 00:41:24,700
because I am so much further ahead of where I was 90 days ago

723
00:41:24,740 --> 00:41:26,580
when I started this.

724
00:41:26,580 --> 00:41:31,580
90 days ago when I started this was a completely different me.

725
00:41:32,580 --> 00:41:35,100
And so there's two journeys that I'm going on.

726
00:41:35,100 --> 00:41:37,140
I learned about this concept in expert secrets.

727
00:41:37,140 --> 00:41:41,740
There's the journey of, I think it's called the journey,

728
00:41:41,740 --> 00:41:45,260
like the destination, which is basically,

729
00:41:46,180 --> 00:41:48,700
my destination would be like freedom

730
00:41:48,700 --> 00:41:52,100
or my destination would be financial freedom.

731
00:41:52,100 --> 00:41:54,980
That's kind of like the purpose of,

732
00:41:54,980 --> 00:41:59,980
like that's the greedy purpose or the selfish purpose

733
00:42:00,680 --> 00:42:03,020
that I have for myself for this podcast.

734
00:42:03,020 --> 00:42:08,020
That's the journey of destination.

735
00:42:08,060 --> 00:42:11,180
Like that's my journey that I'm going towards.

736
00:42:12,820 --> 00:42:14,540
And then, but there's a,

737
00:42:14,540 --> 00:42:19,540
like that's kind of what I'm documenting for the podcast.

738
00:42:19,540 --> 00:42:22,260
But then there's a second more hidden journey,

739
00:42:22,260 --> 00:42:24,540
which is the journey of transformation,

740
00:42:24,540 --> 00:42:26,900
which is actually what people want to see.

741
00:42:26,900 --> 00:42:31,580
Like that's actually what makes people feel good

742
00:42:31,580 --> 00:42:34,300
about this story or that's what makes people attached

743
00:42:34,300 --> 00:42:37,780
to the movies and all of that stuff.

744
00:42:37,780 --> 00:42:40,740
And the journey of transformation is the evolution

745
00:42:40,740 --> 00:42:44,700
that occurs, like the improvement that occurs on,

746
00:42:44,700 --> 00:42:49,700
like for that person on their journey towards the,

747
00:42:50,700 --> 00:42:51,540
their goal.

748
00:42:52,780 --> 00:42:55,060
And so it's just been 90 days

749
00:42:55,780 --> 00:43:00,100
and I haven't reached my destination yet.

750
00:43:00,100 --> 00:43:02,580
The most powerful thing of all

751
00:43:02,580 --> 00:43:03,980
is my journey of transformation.

752
00:43:03,980 --> 00:43:07,260
These past 90 days, I've been like changing as a person.

753
00:43:07,260 --> 00:43:11,400
I've been evolving and improving so much radically.

754
00:43:12,780 --> 00:43:16,300
And now I'm like starting to transform.

755
00:43:16,300 --> 00:43:20,220
And then once I, like in the next 90 days,

756
00:43:20,220 --> 00:43:22,620
once I reach like episode 180,

757
00:43:23,780 --> 00:43:26,580
then I'll definitely be radically different

758
00:43:26,580 --> 00:43:27,740
to where I am now.

759
00:43:27,740 --> 00:43:32,740
So it's like this, it's a whole process.

760
00:43:34,180 --> 00:43:36,300
And that like, that's the thing.

761
00:43:36,300 --> 00:43:40,740
Like yes, I'm chasing this like destination,

762
00:43:40,740 --> 00:43:43,340
which by the way, there is no real destination,

763
00:43:44,740 --> 00:43:47,940
but I'm chasing this like vague thing of freedom.

764
00:43:48,820 --> 00:43:52,260
And then along the way,

765
00:43:52,260 --> 00:43:53,660
you guys are seeing the transformation.

766
00:43:53,660 --> 00:43:57,020
And so when you guys actually do this for yourself,

767
00:43:57,020 --> 00:44:00,060
like when you make the decision to do this for yourself

768
00:44:00,060 --> 00:44:01,220
and make the decision that,

769
00:44:01,220 --> 00:44:03,460
oh yeah, I actually want to be financially free.

770
00:44:03,460 --> 00:44:04,580
Like this is something I want.

771
00:44:04,580 --> 00:44:06,980
I want to actually escape from,

772
00:44:06,980 --> 00:44:08,700
I want to actually live my life.

773
00:44:08,700 --> 00:44:10,100
I want to destroy my worldview.

774
00:44:10,100 --> 00:44:11,220
I want to learn the truth.

775
00:44:11,220 --> 00:44:13,900
I want to see all of it.

776
00:44:13,900 --> 00:44:16,940
Like I want to not be confined in this box

777
00:44:16,940 --> 00:44:19,460
that society has placed us in.

778
00:44:19,460 --> 00:44:21,380
It's actually a shame because more and more

779
00:44:21,380 --> 00:44:23,060
I'm coming aware of it.

780
00:44:23,060 --> 00:44:26,740
That my whole life has been literally,

781
00:44:26,740 --> 00:44:28,500
I've been placed in this box.

782
00:44:28,500 --> 00:44:33,500
Like it's just, I've been hidden like,

783
00:44:35,260 --> 00:44:38,820
true reality, like real life has been hidden for me

784
00:44:38,820 --> 00:44:41,420
all my life by society.

785
00:44:41,420 --> 00:44:43,300
And so when you guys make the decision,

786
00:44:44,220 --> 00:44:47,260
yeah, you're going towards the destination,

787
00:44:47,260 --> 00:44:49,060
you're going towards the goal.

788
00:44:50,900 --> 00:44:53,820
But the transformation is what really is happening

789
00:44:53,820 --> 00:44:57,620
on the daily basis.

790
00:44:57,620 --> 00:44:59,140
And this is another thing.

791
00:44:59,140 --> 00:45:01,140
What got you here won't get you there.

792
00:45:02,220 --> 00:45:04,940
So what got me here to episode 90

793
00:45:04,940 --> 00:45:07,500
will not get me to episode 180.

794
00:45:07,500 --> 00:45:10,940
Yeah, I could do the same thing to get to 180,

795
00:45:10,940 --> 00:45:13,780
but I won't see this, I won't see growth.

796
00:45:13,780 --> 00:45:17,660
I could just go through the monotony of daily life

797
00:45:17,660 --> 00:45:20,060
and just get to episode 180,

798
00:45:20,060 --> 00:45:23,900
but I won't see any growth on my show.

799
00:45:23,900 --> 00:45:27,060
If I really want to like get results out of this

800
00:45:27,060 --> 00:45:28,980
and get results off of my show,

801
00:45:30,100 --> 00:45:33,140
then I have to keep changing and evolving as a person.

802
00:45:33,140 --> 00:45:37,340
That's why I'm really locking in on the other two core

803
00:45:37,340 --> 00:45:41,700
threes, because if I simply just focus on my core,

804
00:45:41,700 --> 00:45:44,660
my one core of documentation,

805
00:45:44,660 --> 00:45:46,740
I probably won't get very far.

806
00:45:46,740 --> 00:45:51,740
But that's why I'm focusing on the other two cores,

807
00:45:52,060 --> 00:45:54,980
because when I, those are the two things

808
00:45:54,980 --> 00:45:57,860
that are actually gonna radically shift me as a human.

809
00:45:57,860 --> 00:46:00,820
My worldview is so much different,

810
00:46:00,820 --> 00:46:03,660
and it's starting to actually be shaped

811
00:46:03,660 --> 00:46:06,780
to how I want it to be from where it was

812
00:46:06,780 --> 00:46:10,260
when I first started podcasting.

813
00:46:10,260 --> 00:46:12,940
My knowledge is not as good.

814
00:46:12,940 --> 00:46:16,500
My like attention, my control over my thoughts,

815
00:46:16,500 --> 00:46:19,180
my control over my attention is way better

816
00:46:19,180 --> 00:46:20,780
than it was before.

817
00:46:20,780 --> 00:46:25,780
Like every single aspect of myself, my balance also,

818
00:46:25,780 --> 00:46:28,420
like everything is better than it was when I started.

819
00:46:30,540 --> 00:46:34,260
And so that's why I have three core things.

820
00:46:34,260 --> 00:46:37,740
Meditation to control my thoughts more, control,

821
00:46:37,740 --> 00:46:41,500
like and actually learn about this new thing

822
00:46:41,500 --> 00:46:43,020
that I'm learning about the gateway experience,

823
00:46:43,020 --> 00:46:48,020
which helps you reach deep levels of meditation,

824
00:46:48,540 --> 00:46:50,060
deep levels of consciousness.

825
00:46:50,060 --> 00:46:53,180
It actually helps you like start to uncover

826
00:46:53,180 --> 00:46:56,060
the reality of like the nature of reality itself,

827
00:46:56,060 --> 00:46:58,980
the fabric of reality, nature of the fabric of reality

828
00:46:58,980 --> 00:47:03,380
or whatever helps you start to learn more about yourself

829
00:47:03,380 --> 00:47:06,800
and the nature of like the human soul and all that.

830
00:47:08,060 --> 00:47:11,220
And then the other one is the worldview,

831
00:47:11,220 --> 00:47:13,300
which I've been doing ever since I started,

832
00:47:13,300 --> 00:47:15,180
like before I started podcasting,

833
00:47:15,180 --> 00:47:17,100
but especially once I started podcasting,

834
00:47:17,100 --> 00:47:19,260
I started getting locked in on worldview.

835
00:47:19,260 --> 00:47:24,260
And that is like the biggest thing that needs to change

836
00:47:24,260 --> 00:47:26,900
in me, like my worldview that got me here

837
00:47:26,900 --> 00:47:29,620
will not get me to become a millionaire.

838
00:47:29,620 --> 00:47:31,100
Early on in this podcast,

839
00:47:31,100 --> 00:47:32,740
I declared that I was gonna be a millionaire.

840
00:47:32,740 --> 00:47:35,820
I think it was episode seven.

841
00:47:35,820 --> 00:47:37,260
That was like the first,

842
00:47:37,260 --> 00:47:40,900
I think that was like the first time I publicly declared.

843
00:47:40,900 --> 00:47:43,020
That was gonna be a millionaire.

844
00:47:43,020 --> 00:47:45,860
And I haven't really talked about it much since then,

845
00:47:45,860 --> 00:47:49,060
I don't think, but that's where I'm headed.

846
00:47:49,060 --> 00:47:53,460
And well, actually, yeah, I have talked about it,

847
00:47:53,460 --> 00:47:57,580
but where was I going with this?

848
00:48:06,020 --> 00:48:09,620
It was gonna be a millionaire and then, oh yeah.

849
00:48:09,620 --> 00:48:13,580
So the worldview that I had when I declared that,

850
00:48:13,580 --> 00:48:15,540
I'm gonna be honest, I didn't really know.

851
00:48:15,540 --> 00:48:17,580
Now I know way more.

852
00:48:17,580 --> 00:48:20,300
I still have like a sliver of doubt,

853
00:48:20,300 --> 00:48:24,620
but I have like, my worldview has been absolutely purged,

854
00:48:24,620 --> 00:48:26,660
like completely.

855
00:48:26,660 --> 00:48:29,980
And it's still like, I still have a lot of work to do,

856
00:48:29,980 --> 00:48:31,820
but my worldview is radically different

857
00:48:31,820 --> 00:48:34,380
from where it was when I first started.

858
00:48:34,380 --> 00:48:38,220
And so now I'm like more and more realizing

859
00:48:38,220 --> 00:48:40,300
that this is actually possible.

860
00:48:40,300 --> 00:48:45,180
And it's like, that's why I'm really lacking in a worldview

861
00:48:45,180 --> 00:48:48,540
because worldview is gonna allow me to uncover way more.

862
00:48:48,540 --> 00:48:51,780
Like I have been talking about in the past few episodes,

863
00:48:51,780 --> 00:48:55,980
one of the biggest things that is holding us back,

864
00:48:55,980 --> 00:48:59,140
or the only thing that's holding us back is ourself.

865
00:49:00,300 --> 00:49:02,660
But it's not entirely our fault

866
00:49:02,660 --> 00:49:07,780
because society has basically

867
00:49:07,780 --> 00:49:10,500
manipulated or shaped and molded your mind,

868
00:49:10,500 --> 00:49:13,580
your worldview, your thoughts in such a way

869
00:49:13,580 --> 00:49:15,220
to where you actually,

870
00:49:15,220 --> 00:49:18,460
it actually gets you to hold yourself back.

871
00:49:18,460 --> 00:49:20,860
And so, yes, you hold yourself,

872
00:49:20,860 --> 00:49:22,500
you're the only one holding yourself back,

873
00:49:22,500 --> 00:49:26,020
but it's because society has placed those thoughts

874
00:49:26,020 --> 00:49:26,980
into your mind.

875
00:49:29,020 --> 00:49:34,020
And so, what I realized is that I'm holding myself back,

876
00:49:34,020 --> 00:49:36,820
I'm holding myself back,

877
00:49:36,820 --> 00:49:38,220
that's why I'm going on worldview.

878
00:49:38,220 --> 00:49:42,900
That's why I need to completely change all of this stuff

879
00:49:42,900 --> 00:49:46,060
because I'm still holding myself back to this day.

880
00:49:46,060 --> 00:50:04,740
Let me get some water.

881
00:50:04,740 --> 00:50:10,500
It's a lot of learning that I must occur.

882
00:50:10,500 --> 00:50:13,620
Like I was saying, worldview,

883
00:50:13,620 --> 00:50:16,500
you're the only one holding yourself back,

884
00:50:16,500 --> 00:50:18,540
but society has placed that into you.

885
00:50:18,540 --> 00:50:21,340
But you had the ability to take that out.

886
00:50:21,340 --> 00:50:23,620
But it's a long process, I'm gonna be honest.

887
00:50:23,620 --> 00:50:25,740
I've been doing it a few months

888
00:50:25,740 --> 00:50:27,140
and I've still got a long way to go.

889
00:50:27,140 --> 00:50:31,020
I feel like it may be a lifelong thing.

890
00:50:32,020 --> 00:50:34,260
But one of the biggest,

891
00:50:34,260 --> 00:50:37,140
like probably I haven't learned much about it,

892
00:50:37,140 --> 00:50:40,220
but just from what I've seen so far,

893
00:50:40,220 --> 00:50:44,020
this may in fact be the biggest thing holding us back.

894
00:50:44,020 --> 00:50:45,780
And it's the fear of death.

895
00:50:45,780 --> 00:50:47,820
That's one of the things that society has placed

896
00:50:47,820 --> 00:50:51,260
into our minds, it's deeply ingrained

897
00:50:51,260 --> 00:50:53,940
in our consciousness.

898
00:50:55,100 --> 00:50:56,380
The fear of death.

899
00:50:57,660 --> 00:51:01,300
The Stoics, they did not fear death.

900
00:51:01,300 --> 00:51:04,940
My friend was telling me about one of the Stoics

901
00:51:04,940 --> 00:51:07,020
that he read about, I forgot his name.

902
00:51:07,020 --> 00:51:12,020
And he heard, like read some quotes about him

903
00:51:12,780 --> 00:51:16,660
and basically the Stoic did not fear death

904
00:51:16,660 --> 00:51:19,380
because when you fear death, you're not really living.

905
00:51:21,420 --> 00:51:24,380
So that is something that I'm really gonna start

906
00:51:24,380 --> 00:51:26,860
getting into over the next couple of weeks,

907
00:51:26,860 --> 00:51:29,260
the fear of death and just death in general

908
00:51:29,260 --> 00:51:33,060
because if that's one of the biggest things

909
00:51:33,060 --> 00:51:35,220
that I'm holding myself back with,

910
00:51:35,220 --> 00:51:37,780
well then it would make sense

911
00:51:37,780 --> 00:51:40,220
to just destroy it out of my mind.

912
00:51:41,500 --> 00:51:44,300
I hadn't even thought about the fear of death

913
00:51:45,260 --> 00:51:47,540
until just recently, I wasn't even aware

914
00:51:47,540 --> 00:51:50,580
that that was a limiting belief in my mind

915
00:51:50,580 --> 00:51:51,700
until just recently.

916
00:51:52,700 --> 00:51:55,660
And so that makes me think what else is there in my mind

917
00:51:55,660 --> 00:51:59,020
that I'm not even aware of that's holding me back?

918
00:51:59,020 --> 00:52:00,380
What else is there?

919
00:52:00,380 --> 00:52:05,380
So it's one, one, it's a process of actually

920
00:52:05,940 --> 00:52:09,700
like getting rid of the limiting beliefs

921
00:52:09,700 --> 00:52:12,620
but in order to get rid of it, you have to actually be aware

922
00:52:12,620 --> 00:52:14,740
and you have to actually know

923
00:52:14,740 --> 00:52:17,360
that it is a limiting belief and what it is.

924
00:52:18,380 --> 00:52:20,300
Like I didn't even know that the fear of death

925
00:52:20,300 --> 00:52:24,700
was a limiting belief until recently.

926
00:52:26,100 --> 00:52:29,380
And now I need to know like what it is.

927
00:52:29,380 --> 00:52:30,580
I need to learn more about it

928
00:52:30,580 --> 00:52:34,660
because yeah, I could like start trying to do the inner work

929
00:52:34,660 --> 00:52:36,660
and purging myself of the fear of death

930
00:52:37,820 --> 00:52:42,540
but it's like, I don't know how to go about that.

931
00:52:42,540 --> 00:52:45,060
So I have to learn more about it

932
00:52:45,060 --> 00:52:47,860
in order to actually start doing the inner work on it.

933
00:52:50,740 --> 00:52:53,700
And so that's why I'm gonna be reading Die Wise next.

934
00:52:53,700 --> 00:53:00,620
I have maybe a hundred pages left of Dancing After The Music

935
00:53:00,620 --> 00:53:02,260
stops, which sounds like a lot

936
00:53:02,260 --> 00:53:05,500
but it'll probably just be like two days of reading

937
00:53:05,500 --> 00:53:09,620
because in two days, because there's a lot of pictures

938
00:53:09,620 --> 00:53:11,580
and it's a pretty quick read

939
00:53:11,580 --> 00:53:16,420
because there's, it's pretty big words

940
00:53:16,420 --> 00:53:18,860
and it's a lot of spaces.

941
00:53:18,860 --> 00:53:20,820
And like there's a lot of empty pages

942
00:53:20,820 --> 00:53:24,100
or pages with just like a few words on it.

943
00:53:26,220 --> 00:53:29,860
But the fear of death is one of the biggest things

944
00:53:29,860 --> 00:53:33,380
that I need to work on.

945
00:53:35,140 --> 00:53:39,380
It's an absolutely, it's a long journey

946
00:53:39,380 --> 00:53:42,020
and that's like, that's why I'm very happy

947
00:53:42,020 --> 00:53:44,940
with my decision to start podcasting

948
00:53:44,940 --> 00:53:49,940
because there's so many things that I am documenting

949
00:53:49,940 --> 00:53:52,540
that would be so valuable to learn about

950
00:53:53,780 --> 00:53:55,220
when I first started.

951
00:53:55,220 --> 00:53:58,940
Like I said, you have to first learn

952
00:53:58,940 --> 00:54:00,780
about these limiting beliefs

953
00:54:00,780 --> 00:54:02,580
before you can actually get rid of them.

954
00:54:04,500 --> 00:54:06,580
Yeah, the getting rid of them is a long process

955
00:54:06,580 --> 00:54:08,940
but learning about them could be a long process as well

956
00:54:08,940 --> 00:54:10,500
if you don't even know where to start.

957
00:54:10,500 --> 00:54:13,500
Like I spent a whole year before I even started

958
00:54:13,500 --> 00:54:15,100
learning about worldview.

959
00:54:15,100 --> 00:54:19,660
Well, actually I spent like six months reading books

960
00:54:19,660 --> 00:54:22,020
before I even learned about Transurfing.

961
00:54:22,940 --> 00:54:24,980
And then once I learned about Transurfing,

962
00:54:24,980 --> 00:54:26,620
then the game changed for me

963
00:54:26,620 --> 00:54:30,060
and I started actually doing some worldview stuff

964
00:54:30,060 --> 00:54:32,300
and started learning about all that.

965
00:54:32,300 --> 00:54:34,580
It's probably like eight months maybe.

966
00:54:34,580 --> 00:54:36,020
It doesn't even matter though.

967
00:54:37,740 --> 00:54:42,740
But this podcast is definitely gonna be evolving soon.

968
00:54:43,060 --> 00:54:46,660
And I want to appreciate you guys

969
00:54:46,660 --> 00:54:48,580
for listening to these early episodes

970
00:54:48,580 --> 00:54:53,580
because one of the things that helped me start

971
00:54:54,260 --> 00:54:58,260
in the beginning recording was,

972
00:55:00,980 --> 00:55:03,260
one of the things that I heard was

973
00:55:03,260 --> 00:55:05,620
you're gonna suck in the beginning, like that's a given.

974
00:55:05,620 --> 00:55:08,180
You're gonna suck at podcasting.

975
00:55:08,180 --> 00:55:11,420
But the great thing is no one's gonna be listening to you.

976
00:55:11,420 --> 00:55:14,860
Like no one is gonna hear your beginning episodes

977
00:55:14,860 --> 00:55:17,180
because you're gonna suck.

978
00:55:17,180 --> 00:55:20,420
So no one's even gonna hear any of your episodes

979
00:55:20,420 --> 00:55:23,540
or even listen to you for quite some time.

980
00:55:23,540 --> 00:55:25,900
So that's good because it gives you time

981
00:55:25,900 --> 00:55:30,260
to start hearing, to like discovering your voice

982
00:55:30,260 --> 00:55:31,780
and finding your voice.

983
00:55:31,780 --> 00:55:34,620
And then all of, like it gives you time

984
00:55:34,620 --> 00:55:35,900
to get better and better.

985
00:55:35,900 --> 00:55:37,500
And then by the time you're actually good,

986
00:55:37,500 --> 00:55:39,460
then people will actually start listening.

987
00:55:41,180 --> 00:55:44,780
Which I feel as though I've started to get good,

988
00:55:44,780 --> 00:55:49,780
but it's also like, yeah, maybe I'm not that good yet.

989
00:55:51,380 --> 00:55:53,700
But it's also like I want to start seeing results.

990
00:55:53,700 --> 00:55:57,460
Like I'm not afraid of people hearing my show anymore.

991
00:55:57,460 --> 00:56:00,380
I'm not afraid of, like I'm not nervous

992
00:56:00,380 --> 00:56:02,380
or embarrassed about my podcast anymore.

993
00:56:03,500 --> 00:56:06,300
And so I'm starting to like want to see results

994
00:56:06,300 --> 00:56:10,140
and it's, I'm very glad that I have people listening.

995
00:56:10,140 --> 00:56:15,140
Even like people, like I've had like at least four subscribers

996
00:56:15,140 --> 00:56:19,940
pretty much the entire time I was recording.

997
00:56:21,620 --> 00:56:24,700
And recently it's been like five, six, seven.

998
00:56:24,700 --> 00:56:27,900
So people are actually listening to my episodes,

999
00:56:27,900 --> 00:56:29,700
which is very inspiring.

1000
00:56:31,380 --> 00:56:33,700
I don't really think about it enough.

1001
00:56:33,700 --> 00:56:36,700
I just always assume that no one's listening,

1002
00:56:36,700 --> 00:56:38,540
but they're like, you guys are actually listening.

1003
00:56:38,540 --> 00:56:43,060
Like there is six people that listened today,

1004
00:56:43,060 --> 00:56:45,340
just before I started recording.

1005
00:56:45,340 --> 00:56:48,900
Six people have already listened to my episodes.

1006
00:56:49,900 --> 00:56:51,940
So I want to appreciate you guys for listening.

1007
00:56:51,940 --> 00:56:55,460
And one last concept I want to talk about

1008
00:56:55,460 --> 00:57:00,460
is about my sudden surge of growth.

1009
00:57:00,980 --> 00:57:03,580
Which to me, it's a big surge of growth,

1010
00:57:03,580 --> 00:57:05,540
but in the grammar scheme of things,

1011
00:57:05,540 --> 00:57:07,780
it's not very big of a surge of growth.

1012
00:57:07,780 --> 00:57:11,660
Because 57 downloads is not that much considering

1013
00:57:11,660 --> 00:57:15,580
like where I want to be at like hundreds of thousands

1014
00:57:15,580 --> 00:57:17,380
or even millions of downloads a day.

1015
00:57:18,860 --> 00:57:23,860
But the surge of growth reminded me.

1016
00:57:24,580 --> 00:57:27,140
So right away when I saw that yesterday,

1017
00:57:27,140 --> 00:57:28,940
after like after I went upstairs

1018
00:57:28,940 --> 00:57:30,260
and I started thinking about it,

1019
00:57:30,260 --> 00:57:32,780
I thought, okay, there's two options.

1020
00:57:32,780 --> 00:57:34,220
There's one option.

1021
00:57:34,220 --> 00:57:36,900
All of these people are gonna listen for now on.

1022
00:57:36,900 --> 00:57:39,500
So now I'm gonna start having 50 subscribers

1023
00:57:39,500 --> 00:57:42,020
and 50 listeners for now on.

1024
00:57:42,020 --> 00:57:43,780
Or the second option is it's gonna be

1025
00:57:43,780 --> 00:57:45,900
like the Transurfing principle.

1026
00:57:45,900 --> 00:57:49,180
One of the stories that I learned about in Transurfing

1027
00:57:49,180 --> 00:57:52,660
was the stories of the Beatles, the band, the Beatles.

1028
00:57:52,660 --> 00:57:57,140
And there was another band as well.

1029
00:57:57,140 --> 00:57:59,740
I forgot their name, but pretty much

1030
00:57:59,740 --> 00:58:02,460
he, Vadim Zon told these stories

1031
00:58:02,460 --> 00:58:05,700
to portray this one principle.

1032
00:58:05,700 --> 00:58:08,740
And it's the principle of like fame.

1033
00:58:08,740 --> 00:58:12,620
And it's how the pendulum works

1034
00:58:12,620 --> 00:58:16,660
in regards to you gaining fame and popularity.

1035
00:58:17,740 --> 00:58:20,420
Which are you gaining like people

1036
00:58:20,420 --> 00:58:22,260
that are actually listening to you.

1037
00:58:22,260 --> 00:58:26,700
And so essentially the Beatles had a very long time

1038
00:58:26,700 --> 00:58:29,460
where they were not listened to.

1039
00:58:29,460 --> 00:58:31,860
Yes, they were very good.

1040
00:58:31,860 --> 00:58:35,260
Like in the beginning stages, I'm pretty sure.

1041
00:58:35,260 --> 00:58:37,140
If I remember the story correctly,

1042
00:58:37,140 --> 00:58:39,460
they were as good as they were

1043
00:58:39,460 --> 00:58:42,940
like when they were not listened to.

1044
00:58:42,940 --> 00:58:46,860
Like their songs were the same when they were not listened to.

1045
00:58:46,860 --> 00:58:49,940
And when they were like the most famous in the world.

1046
00:58:49,940 --> 00:58:51,100
Like their songs were the same.

1047
00:58:51,100 --> 00:58:54,180
The only difference was people were actually listening.

1048
00:58:54,180 --> 00:58:58,340
And so it took them like years to even get

1049
00:58:59,940 --> 00:59:01,620
a little bit of a fan base.

1050
00:59:01,620 --> 00:59:06,620
So after a few years, they developed like a small fan base.

1051
00:59:07,980 --> 00:59:12,980
And then they had one hit song.

1052
00:59:13,900 --> 00:59:16,340
And everyone thought that it was just a one time thing.

1053
00:59:16,340 --> 00:59:19,420
And no one, like the song like was a hit.

1054
00:59:20,500 --> 00:59:23,140
And then everyone was like, oh, it's just a one time thing.

1055
00:59:23,140 --> 00:59:27,060
And it was, they instantly like went back down

1056
00:59:27,060 --> 00:59:31,940
to their kind of baseline of what they were before.

1057
00:59:31,940 --> 00:59:33,300
Maybe they went up a little bit,

1058
00:59:33,300 --> 00:59:36,020
but pretty much they're still like not very popular,

1059
00:59:36,020 --> 00:59:37,900
but they had one hit.

1060
00:59:37,900 --> 00:59:39,940
And then they suck through.

1061
00:59:39,940 --> 00:59:44,420
And then they like the wave,

1062
00:59:44,420 --> 00:59:47,780
like their one hit was kind of like the first wave

1063
00:59:47,780 --> 00:59:48,660
come crashing in.

1064
00:59:48,660 --> 00:59:51,140
And then it kind of like draw back.

1065
00:59:51,140 --> 00:59:52,180
That's what Adam Zellin said.

1066
00:59:52,180 --> 00:59:54,140
The wave kind of draw back,

1067
00:59:54,140 --> 00:59:56,980
went back and gained more force and power.

1068
00:59:56,980 --> 00:59:58,380
And then it hit them again.

1069
00:59:58,380 --> 01:00:00,060
And then this time it was like for real

1070
01:00:00,060 --> 01:00:04,140
and they were a world sensation and they gained fame.

1071
01:00:04,140 --> 01:00:07,500
So it was first wave come in

1072
01:00:07,500 --> 01:00:11,300
and then it kind of drew back and then they got hit with it.

1073
01:00:11,300 --> 01:00:15,420
And so yes, I'm not to that scale.

1074
01:00:15,420 --> 01:00:17,660
Like I have a small follower base.

1075
01:00:17,660 --> 01:00:19,460
So I've been doing this for 90 days.

1076
01:00:19,460 --> 01:00:23,460
So so far, all of the principles are the same in my story

1077
01:00:23,460 --> 01:00:25,820
as they are for the Beatles.

1078
01:00:25,820 --> 01:00:28,540
I've been doing this for 90 days quite some time.

1079
01:00:28,540 --> 01:00:30,260
I've developed a small follower base,

1080
01:00:30,260 --> 01:00:32,740
like four to seven people listening.

1081
01:00:34,740 --> 01:00:36,780
Obviously it's not to the same scale.

1082
01:00:36,780 --> 01:00:39,580
Like I have, it's much smaller scale

1083
01:00:39,580 --> 01:00:41,860
and much smaller timeframe as well.

1084
01:00:41,860 --> 01:00:44,260
And then I had my first surge of growth,

1085
01:00:44,260 --> 01:00:46,500
which was in fact a one time thing

1086
01:00:47,580 --> 01:00:52,580
as proved today when I just saw this, the analytics.

1087
01:00:52,580 --> 01:00:57,580
And so it like the wave is kind of pulling back now.

1088
01:00:58,420 --> 01:01:01,780
And so my prediction is that soon I'll have another surge

1089
01:01:01,780 --> 01:01:03,900
but this time it'll be like for real.

1090
01:01:03,900 --> 01:01:08,900
And it may not be like to the extent that the Beatles were,

1091
01:01:10,820 --> 01:01:14,020
but it'll be a noticeable surge.

1092
01:01:14,020 --> 01:01:16,100
And I'll start to actually see some success

1093
01:01:16,100 --> 01:01:19,020
with this podcast.

1094
01:01:19,020 --> 01:01:22,940
So that's another thing to give hope and give some more

1095
01:01:22,940 --> 01:01:24,780
inspiration for me to move forward.

1096
01:01:24,780 --> 01:01:27,180
But that's pretty much it for today's episode.

1097
01:01:27,180 --> 01:01:28,580
